THE LETTERS OF RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS

Dorking

Tuesday [March 1936]

Dearest Harriet

I am so sorry – I quite forgot I’d got it – Also I’d hoped to be able to present you with a printed copy by now – I passed the proofs quite two months ago – In going through the copy I’ve found one or two mistakes
– Also at the beginning of the slow movement I’ve decided to cut 2 bars – this is probably not in the band parts – but it’s only a question of altering the number of bars rests¹
Love from

1. VW is referring to the Piano Concerto, which he dedicated to Harriet Cohen.
